Hi, Joanne,

You may find out by contacting the Seattle AVS. The hybidizer was from north of Seattle, Skagit County, hence the Skagit series. I think some of his family is still in the area and old records may be available.

Some of my very first named violets, purchased in the Seattle area at a show, were his. They are like some of the neat cars I had at one time, still wish I had them.

Good luck.

Hi Joanne ... I grow Skagit Tiny Limelite in a 2 1/4" pot. I've found that it does much better in lower light conditions and then it doesn't sucker as much. I'd remove the suckers real soon, as they can really deform your plant. Here's the description for it and a photo of mine.

Skagit Tiny Limelite (4289) 02/09/1981 (W. Lindstrom) Semidouble white/pink-green edge. Ruffled girl foliage. Miniature

What a gorgeous plant, Joan!

Joanne, there is another plant, a standard which has the words limelight in it. Maybe you have this plant?

Thanks Nancy. It's one of my favourites!

The one picture I saw looked the same. I don't know why but I did not get the picture you sent Joan. I'll check on my computer at home. Thanks to all for the info.

Hello,
I just joined your forum and was pleased to see the photo of Skagit Tiny Limelight. I bought this little one a couple of days ago at one African Violet Show in Moscow (Russia) for its cute lives. The grower did not have its photo in bloom an I had no idea. So I know now and will be eagerly waiting to see this wonderful flowers... :-)
